Christien Meindertsma

Utrecht, Netherlands

Christien Meindertsma is a Dutch artist and designer. She explores the connection between raw materials and the everyday products that surround us, revealing a network between source and consumer that has become increasingly invisible.

The unique projects of Meindertsma highlight industrial processes and, in doing so, they create a platform from which to examine them. Her work questions whether things could or, perhaps, should be made differently.

She urges us to think about materials and objects in a new light and value the immense time and effort that goes into everything we touch, hold, use and, ultimately, throw away.
